122 TopicsCertificates are cached too aggressively in RD Web Client
We use the RD Web Client (Latest version 1.0.27) Normally it works really well, but then once a year we have to update our SSL Certificates. The problem is the Web Client likes to cache the old certificate and not get the latest certificate. This results in people getting the following error: Hitting F5, Ctrl F5 does not resolve this. The following are the instructions we have to give the AVERAGE USER to get them passed it: * Press F12 to open DEVTOOLS * Press F1 to open DEVTOOLS SETTINGS * Under Networking tick Disable Cache (while DevTools is open) * On the tab, refresh the page with F5. * Close the DevTools tab Luckily these instructions more or less work for every major browser. But I think you can see that no end user should have to do anything as crazy as this. This also makes the move towards certificates with a shorter life impossible. Can this please be looked into with urgency? (Note: I know this is the Azure Virtual Desktop Feedback, but It's what the feedback button in the web client links to. If there's a better place to provide this feedback please let me know)2.2KViews5likes10CommentsWindows Mobile App on Apple Vision Pro and Bluetooth Keyboard
When using the Windows Mobile application (iPad version) on the Apple Vision Pro with the Magic Keyboard, there is an issue. If I switch to another application or window (for example, Safari) and use the keyboard, and then switch back to the Windows application, the keyboard no longer functions. I must click on the virtual keyboard icon, then click again to disable it before the keyboard can be used again.84Views1like2CommentsmacOS Windows App Bug Report
Hello, I have two bugs I would like to report to the macOS Windows app development team. When typing fast, it converts characters to other characters, e.g. "or iṡit all" I had typed "or is it all" Teams app microphone doesn't work until I quit out of Windows app and reopen it. Sometimes I have to do it multiple times. Sometimes I have to complete quit out of Teams inside the Windows app and reload it. Sometimes I have to restart the Windows app CloudPC. Sometimes I have to restart both my host macOS system and the CloudPC system.Something is preventing you from using Windows App right now.
After being auto-updated from Windows App version 2.0.327.0 to version 2.0.328.0, some of our users can't launch their Windows App anymore and get an error message says: "Something is preventing you from using Windows App right now." Since there is no way to control the update process, we could only let our desk users use MSRDC instead, as a temporary solution. For the frontline users, I could only pray that this problem will not take place until weekend. If any Microsoft person sees this post, please let the Windows App team know about this and fix this problem ASAP.578Views2likes6CommentsIssues when using RD client on iPad with hardware keyboard
I’m using a 2022 iPad Pro m2 with Magic Keyboard on iPadOS 18, when I’m connected to my laptop, my keyboard doesn’t work at all unless I click the keyboard icon on the right side of the screen, which is usually for the onscreen keyboard and f-keys. I didn’t need to do this in the older versions of RD client, would be pretty annoying if a keyboard bar and a control dot have to pop up even I’m using a hardware keyboard. Also when I’m trying to type Chinese, it would use iOS’s Chinese input method instead of Windows Chinese input method, which is also really annoying and buggy especially in iOS 18 which the word selector wouldn’t show up at all. Would be really nice if Microsoft could solve these issues!478Views0likes3CommentsBug: Microsoft Remote Desktop on Mac Hangs when copied a large file on remote desktop
I've found a bug that happens to hang Microsoft Remote Desktop on Mac quite often. With shared clipboard enabled (It might also reproduce without shared clipboard, but I didn't try it): On the remote desktop, copy a folder or solution that is fairly large. It doesn't need to be multiple gigabytes, but tens of MB usually can do the trick. Then, switch back to your normal desktop. Once I do this, my Microsoft Remote Desktop now pinwheels and hangs, and I must force quit it and restart it in order to access my remote desktop again.602Views0likes3CommentsWindows App Disconnects my Remote session randomly
It seems the Windows App (for Mac) disconnects me from my Remote Desktop session randomly. It could stay connected for a few seconds or unto 45 minutes. Doesn't matter if its idol or if I am doing something... I am using WireGuard but have also tried with L2TP and get the same results If I connect from my Windows VM using Wireguard and Remote Desktop all is good so everything is pointing to Windows App. There are a couple of entries in my Console relating to Windows App when it crashes but that couple be for any reason... Anyone else have similar or could offer any help please let me know149Views1like2CommentsDevices that are updated to MacOS 15.01 will have frequent disconnects when on RDP sessions
Hi There, We're facing an issue with the Windows App for MacOS devices. When one of our users upgrades to the latest MacOS Sequoia update, version 15.01. They will face constant disconnects on RDP connections to servers. Often with the error code which will be attached to the support ticket. The connection will last from only a couple of minutes, with the longest anyone has managed being around 30 minutes at the most before dropping out. Since we have teams that need connections that last longer than 30 minutes, this is becoming very disruptive. This doesn't impact those on previous MacOS versions or other operating systems. Work around methods when looking online into this suggest turning local firewall settings off, which isn't possible due to company policy. Thank you.343Views5likes6Comments
